Who we build for
Shops Below, Homes Above: Commercial Buildings for Owners in Jurf Industrial
Commercial owners judge a building by one thing: how quickly it fills with paying tenants. That comes down to decisions made long before the first pour, like the ground-floor ceiling height, where the parking goes and how the fire-safety routes run.
We have made those decisions on real plots. In Jurf Industrial-3 we completed an 11-level residential and commercial tower on Plot 1279, with two parking floors and post-tensioned slabs, and a Ground + 4 + Roof mixed-use building on Plot 0196 with shops at street level and apartments above.
As a building construction company in Ajman since 2017, we hold the G+ Unlimited engineering classification, so offices, retail units, showrooms and mixed-use towers of any permitted height are all within our licence.

What’s included
What’s Included When We Build Your Commercial or Mixed-Use Building
One contract covers everything from the drawing review to the last system test, so you deal with one team instead of five.
Drawing Review for Tenants and Loads
Our engineers check the architectural and MEP drawings for space use, structural loads and shop-front openings before construction. Design conflicts get solved on paper, where they cost least.
Commercial Permits, Civil Defence and EtihadWE
We prepare and submit the architectural, structural and MEP drawings for the building permit, and plan fire-fighting and alarm systems with the MEP works so Civil Defence approval is ready before opening.
Structure, MEP and Façade
Reinforced-concrete frame, post-tensioned slabs where they save space, blockwork, services for both shops and apartments, and a façade that gives your building a clean street presence.
System Testing and Handover
Before handover we test the HVAC, fire-safety, electrical and plumbing systems, then hand over the completion documents. Our team stays available after the final inspection.

How we work
How a Commercial Plot Becomes a Building Ready for Tenants, in 4 Steps
Drawing Review and Scope
We review your architectural and MEP drawings, check space use and load requirements, and agree a transparent budget and timeline built around your opening date.
Permits and Commercial Approvals
We submit the drawings through the MPDA Amar portal and follow up with the Municipality, Civil Defence and Etihad Water & Electricity (EtihadWE, formerly FEWA), so the project moves from design to site without interruption.
Civil, MEP and Finishing Works
One supervision plan and one schedule for structure, services and finishing. Our engineers keep you updated and keep costs under control from start to finish.
System Testing and Handover
Full testing of HVAC, fire safety, electrical and plumbing before handover, then the keys, the documents and continued support after the final inspection.
Approvals & budget
Approvals and Budgets for a Commercial or Mixed-Use Building
Commercial buildings carry more approvals than homes, because shops, offices and apartments each have their own rules for access, fire safety and services. Here is what that means for your plot.
Permitted Use Comes First
Whether your plot allows commercial use, residential use or both decides everything else: the layout, the approvals and the rent you can expect.
We check the permitted use with you before any drawings are paid for.
Civil Defence for Mixed-Use Buildings
Commercial and residential areas need separate access and fire-safety provisions.
We plan fire-fighting and alarm routes together with the MEP works, so the building is ready for Civil Defence approval before it opens.
Built-In Parking
On Plot 1279, two full parking floors were designed into the tower instead of leaving cars to the street.
Built-in parking uses plot area, but it makes apartments and commercial units far easier to rent in a busy district.
What Our Commercial Buildings Have Cost
Ground + 4 + Roof mixed-use, Jurf Industrial: AED 6.8M
11-level residential & commercial tower, Jurf Industrial: AED 16M
Floor area, parking and façade finish move the number most, so we price every building from its own drawings.
Why Sarmed
Why Commercial Owners Choose Sarmed as Their Main Contractor
Four things that matter most when a building has to earn from the day it opens.
Experience with 11-Level Buildings
We have delivered an 11-level tower with two parking floors and post-tensioned slabs, working alongside Al-Sahel Engineering Consulting Office.
One Schedule for Every Trade
Structure, MEP and finishing run on one supervision plan. Where trades overlap to save time, we plan the sequence with the consultant and the specialist subcontractors.
Costs You Can Forecast
A transparent budget and timeline before work starts, so you can plan rent and cash flow instead of reacting to surprises.
Built Around Working Streets
In Jurf Industrial, neighbouring workshops keep operating while we build. Site access, deliveries and safety barriers are planned so the street keeps moving.

FAQ
Questions Owners Ask Before Building a Commercial or Mixed-Use Building
Still unsure about your plot, permits or budget? Talk to our engineers directly.
How much does a commercial building cost to build?
It depends on floor area, design, parking and finishes. For reference, our Ground + 4 + Roof mixed-use building cost AED 6.8M and our 11-level tower AED 16M. We price your building from its own drawings after a site visit.
How long does a commercial building take to build?
Typically 10 to 18 months, depending on size, design complexity and finishing level. You get a documented timeline before construction starts.
What approvals does a commercial or mixed-use building need?
A building permit covering the architectural, structural and MEP drawings, Civil Defence approval for fire safety, and EtihadWE connections. We prepare and follow up all of them.
Can I have shops on the ground floor and apartments above?
Often yes, if the permitted use of your plot allows it. We check this with you before design starts, then plan the ground floor around its tenants: ceiling heights, openings and services.
Do you offer design and construction together?
Yes. We work with certified design consultants to deliver turnkey commercial buildings, from the drawings to completion.
Why use post-tensioned slabs on a commercial building?
They allow thinner slabs and longer spans with fewer beams, which means more usable parking and more open commercial floors. We used them on our 11-level tower on Plot 1279.
